Ice can be nice
Connected Photographer Magazine - February 2008
When the temperature outside dips below freezing, the snow swirls and spring seems to be a long ways off, many photographers go into hibernation mode. Winter becomes a time to huddle up in the warm house, start planning for spring photo outings and perhaps spend all those hours processing and sorting the countless images you took in the fall.

Image composition for beginners
Connected Photographer Magazine - November 2004
Composition is the art of arranging the setting of the images you photograph. Any monkey can point a camera and click a shutter, but that doesn't mean the image will be pleasing to the eye, or that anyone will want to look at it. Senior Technical Editor James Booth is by no means a master photographer, but like the other articles in his Photography Basics series, he's learned a few things over the years that might help you produce better photos. In this piece he examines the principles of image composition.
